I think that getting insurance is not possible, so I would call around before you purchase.
Since you can't get insurance for them, you can't get a plate for them so they can't leave your property.
I own two Big Reds. One (86) needs refurbishing, but my 82 is use almost everyday around the farm. Great machines.

There was a decent looking one on here for last week out of Hamilton I believe. Check the for sale section.

Ya, you can't plate or insure them because they are so easy to roll and hurt yourself, but they are light and can get into some tight areas to pull deer out. If you don't plan on riding public trails I think you could get one.
Not limited to public trails...the only place you can run one without plates and insurance is on your own property....Quote:

What insurance company?Quote:
